Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for bringing a volume of a consistency group (CG) into an in-synchronization (InSync) state while other volumes of the CG remain in the InSync state. According to an example, in order to support recovery from disruptive events in a manner that ensures a zero recovery point objective (RPO) guarantee and insulates an application making use of the CG from adverse impacts, responsive to a triggering event, a Fast Resync process may first be attempted to promptly bring an affected volume back into an in-synchronization (InSync) state from an out of synchronization (OOS) state while allowing other members of the CG to remain in the InSync state. Should the Fast resync process be unsuccessful in bringing the volume back into the InSync state within a predetermined or configurable time threshold, then a second type of resynchronization process may be employed at the CG level.
